I, too, have been trying to find a copy of "In a Rehearsal Room" (but my faulty memory thought it was "In a Rehearsal Hall"), so I'm happy to have just discovered this ballet website and gotten the correct name of this wonderful short film, and the names of the performers. (I even emailed Leonard Maltin, the movie critic, about the film but he hadn't heard of it.) Like Lormine, I also saw it in the early 70's in a movie theatre prior to the feature film, several times in fact, and just loved it. Since these prior comments are several years old, I wondered if anyone had any new information about how to obtain a copy of it?
Have you tried following up this lead at the Dance Film Archive? They mention a 16mm film available for rental. I don't know what their conditions of rental are.
I don't know if anyone is still following this thread as it looks a little old, but this video is actually posted on YouTube now:
